Betsey Weisz is a tough-chick from New Jersey who’s always relied on herself first. But when her darkest fears lurch to life, she discovers that she can’t survive without The FooL: an angelic inter-dimensional traveller who can’t remember who (or what) he really is.

Now she and Matt Zero are leaping from one alternate reality to the next, battling demons, dragons, and everything in-between. In order to stop they’ll have to discover the location of “The World”—the one place in all the multiverse they can hide from the cosmic forces hunting them down between dimensions.

To get there, they’ll need to uncover the truth about the FooL’s past. But the more Matt learns, the less he wants to know. And the more Betsey discovers about ultimate nature of reality, the more she finds herself being seduced by the power of the multiverse.

Featuring a unique cast of characters, wild alternate realities, and an off-kilter sense of humor, the adventures of Betsey and the FooL will appeal to fans of paranormal romance, urban horror, and cosmic sci-fi. It’s an infinite multiverse of action, intrigue, mystery, and humor.

About the Author
Andrew Mayer knew he wanted to be a storyteller the moment he realized that words can open doors to other worlds.

After spending childhood devouring every book he could get his hands on (and quite a few he wasn’t supposed to), he got his first job at a bookstore when he turned 14.

While continuing to write, Andrew spent over two decades creating video games, including the endlessly popular “Dogz” and “Catz” titles, and has been a designer and creative director for numerous entertainment companies including Sony, and Cartoon Network.

He has written for Dark Horse Comics, and in 2010 Pyr Books published his genre-busting Steampunk Superhero trilogy, “The Society of Steam.”

He has also written story and dialog for a number of best-selling iPhone apps including Frontline Commando 2 for GLU games.

His latest series, The FooL (www.followthefool.com), is an ongoing paranormal fantasy adventure series.

About the Book
Shimmery mystery and spirits, humble monsters, singing trees and vengeful fish in the 19th-century north Georgia mountains
“A fascinating cast of characters into a genuinely inventive novel that reads like steampunk via Mark Twain. Fact and fancy are intertwined cleverly and seamlessly in a top-notch, thoroughly American fantasy.” Publishers Weekly, starred review

Water spirits, moon maidens, haunted pianos, headless revenants, and an invincible terrapin that lives under the mountains. None of these distract James Holtzclaw from his employer’s mission: to turn the fading gold-rush town of Auraria, GA, into a first-class resort and drown its fortunes below a man-made lake. But when Auraria’s peculiar people and problematic ghosts collide with his own rival ambitions, Holtzclaw must decide what he will save and what will be washed away.

Taking its inspiration from a real Georgia ghost town, Auraria is steeped in the folklore of the Southern Appalachians, where the tensions of natural, supernatural and artificial are still alive.
